I appreciate your 'hook' for memory, I am not the only crazy person.  I use 
the top of the letter B to indicate the moon is waxing  (bigger) and the 
top of the letter S for wanning (smaller)  The curves being the brightest part.

I have not had to worry too much about true nort as my dipole runs 
diagonally in the back yard for the greates length.  Also, all states 
except for 2, AK being one are south of me.  I am just above the border in 
SE BC.
